Nile + Villiers is a residential-led development project comprising 75 homes and 575 sqm of commercial space along High Street West. The aim is to contribute to the growth of Sunniside as a living and working neighbourhood within the city centre, offering high-quality homes for sale and rent.

This development holds significance for Sunniside and the wider city centre as a high-quality scheme prioritising environmental and social sustainability. Partly funded by DLUCH’s Levelling Up Fund following the Council’s successful bid in 2021, it stands as an integral part of the City Centre Housing Ecosystem, complementing initiatives like the Housing Innovation & Construction Skills Academy (HICSA) and the Vaux Neighborhood.

Sunderland City Council is the developer of the scheme, with TOWN in the role of development manager.
